Verdict on G-Loc
G-Loc is an action sci-fi movie that follows a man trying to get to a new safe home. However, he finds himself clashing with the alien species that is letting humans into their world. Although, they find themselves in a bigger battle than either expected.
This is a movie that gets to focus on the idea of a bleak future for humanity. All while showing a lack of willingness to let refugees into the new world. However, it shows that deep down most sides don’t really understand the hate toward each other and need to learn to be as one. Everything is contained between the two locations, Bran’s home before the mission and the spaceship. This is a movie looking to focus on hope and the future, in a way to escape the pain left behind.
Final Thoughts –G-Loc paints a bleak future with a glimpse of hope.
